When Is The Best Time To Fish At Night?

As the name suggests, night fishing refers to fishing at night. It is mainly popular in summer. The reason is that the daylight in summer is very hot. Under the influence of high temperature, both people and fish are uncomfortable. At night, it is a different situation. As long as the fishing method is right, the fish will often bite the hook crazy. Let’s take a look at what time the fish mouth is the best at night!

1. The best time

The best time for night fishing is summer, and there are two main reasons. First, the daytime is very hot in summer. Fishing is prone to heatstroke during the day and is often hot and sweating profusely. Fishing at night is much more comfortable than during the day. Second, small fish such as wheat ear fish and white fish are often annoying during the day in summer. As long as fish bite the hook at night, they are almost all big crucian carp and big carp. In addition, the temperature is relatively high in late spring and early autumn and other seasons are also suitable for wild fish.

2. Opening time

1. Late spring: There are two main opening periods for fishing at night in late spring. One is from 18:00 to 20:00. By 22:00, as the water temperature gets lower and lower, the fish will often dive into the deep water area. After the fish adapt to the water temperature, they will return to the shallow water area to feed. This time is about 2:00 to 4:00 am. At this time, everything is silent, big fish are low in vigilance, and it is most likely to get into big fish.

2. Summer: There are three main opening periods for fishing at night in summer. One is from 18:00 to 20:00, the other is from 22:00 to 0:00 on the second day, and the third is from 2:00 to 4:00. Among them, there are relatively more small fish from 18:00 to 20:00, and half of small fish from 22:00 to 0:00 on the second day. From 2:00 to 4:00, the number of small fish is basically foraging.

3. Early autumn: There are two main periods of fishing openings on early autumn nights. One is from 18:00 to 22:00, and the water temperature gradually drops to the lowest point of the day. The fish often swim to the deep water area, but the fish that adjusts from 4:00 to 6:00 am will return to the shallow water area to feed. At this time, it is most likely to catch big fish, especially when the sky is just dawn.

3. Fishing tackle matching

1. Fishing tackle: The fishing tackle required for night fishing mainly includes fishing rods, line sets, rod racks, fishing chairs (fishing boxes), nets, fish guards and other small fishing accessories. Unlike daytime fishing, night fishing requires luminous floats, and it is impossible to observe the float when fishing at night.

2. Lamps: When fishing at night, you need to prepare lamps, mainly flashlights for lighting, night fishing lamps for observation floats, etc. It is worth noting that two sets of lamps should be prepared as much as possible for emergencies. The reason is that it is common for lamps to fall into the water during night fishing.

3. Armor: Protective tools should be prepared for night fishing, mainly first aid kits for preventing accidents (bandai, hemostatic medicine, gauze, bandage, tape, etc.), mosquito coils for preventing mosquitoes, snake-proof powder and Nantong snake medicine, and raincoats or umbrellas for preventing rain.

4. Things to note

1. It is recommended to try to travel with more than two people together. Fishing with each other will not be boring at night, but it is relatively safe and more secure. At least someone will take care of any danger. If there is only one person, it is best to go to a place with simple and familiar terrain to fish at night.

2. Don’t fish in places with complicated terrain when fishing at night. The reason is that the sight line is often very poor at night. It is easy to get out of the air, slip and other dangers in places with complex terrain. It is best to arrive at the fishing ground before dark. Pay attention to the surrounding environment when choosing a fishing spot.

3. When fishing at night, you must prepare a set of emergency power supplies. It is definitely not good if you don’t have electricity at night. Especially when fishing in remote areas, it is definitely a hassle. Before fishing, you must check the equipment repeatedly to ensure that the power supply is fully charged.

4. When fishing at night, you must pay attention to preventing snakes, insects, rats and ants. Especially mosquitoes, snakes and rats are very active in the evening in summer. After choosing a fishing spot, spray some medicines to prevent snakes, insects, rats and ants around. When fishing, wear mosquito-proof clothing and light mosquito coils to repel mosquitoes.
